Debtless

/ˈdetləs/ adjective

Etymology

From 'debt' + '-less' (without). Follows standard English word formation, though 'debt-free' is more commonly used in modern English.

Kelly Says

'Debtless' is a perfectly logical word that you almost never hear—people prefer the phrasal 'debt-free' instead. It's a reminder that existing word patterns don't always predict which words will actually survive in a language.
